Hello, currently I use qksms but its very problematic and lacks basic fetures. One of those issues being you cant send videos, and sending and recieving media is pixalated or blurry because of a commpresion issue. I’ve already tried adjusting the compresion options in settings to find out it doesn’t work.
What messangers do you guys/gals recommend?
There’s no privacy with SMS. It’s sent in the clear. There’s no changing this with an app.
I understand thats its sent in plain text, I just want something that works and doesn’t have trackers built in.
I already tried getting my family and friends to use signal, so that cant really be done because none of them want to use it.
If they won’t change to something better like SimpleX then you could use https://github.com/wrwrabbit/Partisan-SMS . It is a fork of qksms that adds privacy, it will do nothing for video quality or anything else though.
Is it maintained though? Last commit and release were 8 months ago.
If it works…
But only if both ends use the same app.
Which I always thought was a smart path forward, just getting people to switch apps, even for SMS, isike puling teeth.
